For Sale - Persona test sticks / Persona monitor gadget

[Grrrr]

I have 4 sealed packs of persona test sticks (with an expiry date of September 2007) and am open to offers.

After conceiving a second baby by monitoring ovulation with a persona gadget, dh and I have decided to stop at 2 and so the persona monitor is also up for sale (has original box, instructions etc).
Also open to offers on this in the hope that I don't have to resort to the hassle of eBay.

will you do just the sticks?

Yes, happy to sell the sticks on their own.

how much would you want for 2 boxes?

What sort of price are you looking for, for the gadget thing ?

Did say I was going to give up on OV sticks, and this is essentially the same thing but... I might be interested but have no idea how much they are !

wheely - are you following me? lol.

consider me your personal stalker

I think they sell for £8-£10 a pack and as these need using by the end of September I was hoping for half price so would £4 a pack (including p&p) be too much ? Or £14 for all four packs together.

They are all from the same batch number so you can carry over unused sticks from each pack to the next month (if you know what I mean).

I'm probably looking for £15 (plus postage) for the gadget for a quick sale. I keep seeing it sitting in its box in the cupboard:-

a) taking up valuable storage space and

b) reminding me that we will not be having any more babies (ds2 is such an easy baby I might have been tempted if we hadn't already opted for a "no going back" method of contraception)

Let me know what you think anyway.

Thanks

I would be interested in the gadget if you still have it available?

yes i'll take 2 boxes if that's ok, can I do paypal for you?

(I won't take the others as then the person who gets the moniter will need tyo packs of sticks as well)

I'm not bothered byu the samew batch no's thou thasnks. email's [email protected]

oh go on then !! If we said £25 for the gadget, 2 sets of sticks and postage would that be ok ?

I'll CAT you.

Munz and Wheelybug

Thanks, will be in touch later this evening as I'm at work at the moment with only brief access to MN.

How does CAT'ing work, will I get an e-mail or something ?

Munz, I do have a paypal account, do I give you my ebay name or something ?

I'm so hopeless at technology

no it's ok jsut email me the address of your paypal (the email address you use for it) and i'll sort it all out my end, or you can send an invoice form paypal to my at the hotmail account and i'll pay it on that.

(btw cat means wheely is going to send you an 'email' via MNHQ, it will be snet to the email address you used when setting up your MN details) I gave you my email as not everyone has the catting facility

Thanks for the paypal payment wheelybug.

Will hunt down some bubblewrap etc tomorrow and let you know when the gadget (plus sticks)has been posted.

have done the paypal for you, sorry it wasn't done before (only jsut finished the ironing/kicked DH off of here! lol)

Thanks Munz

All packed ready to post.

Will hopefully make it to the post office at lunchtime.

Munz and Wheelybug

Ladies, both items have just been posted, although I confess to second class postage.(I was surprised how much two very light packs of sticks costs in postage and I'm such a cheapskate)

I have got proof of postage slips for both packages, but sincerely hope we don't need to use them.

The postman delivered a parcel containing clothes whilst I was out yesterday and used his/her initiative to leave it in my wheelybin just inside the front gate with a note telling me that it was there. "Great" I thought, don't have to trek to the sorting office or pay for redelivery. Not so great, it was left in the normal rubbish bin which stinks of mouldy brie and poo'ey nappies due to fortnightly collections and the warm weather. Why would anyone do that when right next to the normal rubbish bin is a recycling wheelybin which only has washed out bottles, cans and newspapers and cardboard, all clean and not smelly.

Just had to get that off my chest.

Grrrr

i'd complain about the postie leaving it in the bin.

anyhow thanks for sending the sticks out, will let you know when they come

Thanks grrrr... will let you know when it arrives.

got tehm today thanks

Oh marvellous, second class post and it arrived only 2 days later, I just hope the more expensive package reaches Wheelybug as quickly.

Hi grrr - it has arrived thanks (we were away at the w/e so I had to pick it up from PO). Just one quick qu- it has a book symbol and a 5 which the book seems to suggest I should ring persona about. Have you had this before ? Could it just be batteries ?? I'll get some new batteries and see if this sorts it out but just wondered if you knew ?

Thanks for sending it promptly.

Wheelybug

It had a 5 showing but no book symbol when I opened it up to check for signs of life before sending it.

Let me know how you get on.

Did the bubble wrap not fully protect the gadget in transit ?

Getting worried now that I've passed on something that needs attention. I'll refund naturally if there's a major problem. I just put it away when I got pregnant and never thought about it.

Hi Grrr

The packaging doesn't looked damaged so am pretty sure its not that. I have just tried some other batteries in it and its still showing the 5 and book. I'll give the helpline a ring tomorrow and see what they say. Will let you know.
